What Is An Itchy And Scaly Patch On The Scrotum Suggestive Of?
Hello, A photo of the itchy patch is needed for a more specific answer. There are 2 main reasons to investigate: 1. psoriasis 2. fungal rash. Should run skin scrapping examination and skin biopsy to determine the right diagnosis. For the moment I advise you to apply betamethasone combination with neomycin and Nystatin ointment. Keep dry by using antifungal powder. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
